Thanks to technology, we can now enjoy easier laundry days with an automatic washing machine! But if you can’t decide on what to get, we’re Teko.ph, the largest aircon, appliance, and computer services provider in the Philippines, to help you!
Benefits of Using An Automatic Washing Machine
From the name itself, an automatic washing machine makes doing laundry automatic! You can do the entire process by pressing just a few buttons.
All you have to do is load your dirty clothes, add the detergent and fabric softener in the designated drawer, and select the cycle. The machine will also automatically fill in water before or as the cycle starts.
You don’t need to manually drain the tubs or transfer the clothes into the dryer. That’s less manual effort for less tiring laundry days!
How Do I Choose the Best Automatic Washing Machine?
Consider your laundry needs.
Do you need to wash your clothes regularly? To make the most out of your purchase, the washing machine’s capacity should depend on your needs.
We recommend getting a 7-8 kg. machine for a 1-2 person family, 9-10 kg. for a 3-4 person family, and 11-14 kg. if you have more than four family members.
Determine if you need a top-load or front-load washing machine.
Top-load washing machines are usually more budget-friendly. If you have limited space and you have a separate dryer, front-load machines are more space-saving since you can stack them.
Choose a reliable brand.
Do a quick research, and then look for details of your preferred units. To help you decide, you can simply read our guide to the Best Washing Machine Brands in the Philippines.
Set a budget.
List down all of your options, and then compare them. Consider the factors we mentioned above to help narrow down your choices.
How to Install An Automatic Washing Machine
Like your other appliances, improper installation can lead to safety and electrical hazards. Don’t throw away that user manual; be sure to read it so you’ll know how to install and use the automatic washing machine.
First off, ensure you have enough space where you’ll put the machine. It should be a flat, level surface that’s near a water supply line and drainage outlet. Also, don’t forget the orientation of your automatic washing machine. Test the door to see if you can open and close it properly so you can load and unload your laundry easily.
